Description
Zhongyu Wang and co-authors reconstruct how a depression in the Bohai Bay Basin formed by sideways fault slip, in work dated 2026. The Mesozoic history of the Jiyang Depression is key to the region's tectonics and its response to movement of the Pacific plate. That history has been debated.
The team joined 3D seismic reading, drill core data, deposit analysis, and measures of fault activity over time. The depression shows a staged pull apart history. In the early stage, faults were few and weak, and coal bearing deposits built up in lake and fan settings. In the middle stage, fault sets grew more active and the basin widened.
